采访:一天拍多少张照片
最近我在采访中被问到这个问题“世界各地一天拍摄了多少张照片”。我知道这很模糊,但我尝试向面试官提出很多问题以从他那里获得更多信息,但最终面试官要求我只给我一个数字
我的答案:40亿
面试官:为什么?
我:因为我喜欢“40亿”这个数字
面试官:大笑起来
,然后在他转向其他问题后
面试官试图从我的回答中得出什么结论,他问这个问题的原因可能是什么?
编辑:面试的是QA工程师职位

在我看来,这类问题是考察面试者逻辑能力和跳出思维能力的一种方式。
这是另一个例子:澳大利亚的灯泡市场,尽管它是为了另一个行业,因此对答案的期望标准更高。
额外奖励(与问题并非 100% 相关):QA 职位的另一个典型问题是如何测试电梯< /a>,不要将其与 电梯测试。
In my opinion, this kind of questions is a way to assess the ability of logic and to think out-of-box of the interviewee.
Here is another example: the market for light bulbs in Australia, though it is for another industry, and thus of higher standard of expectation of the answer.
Bonus (not 100% related to the question): another typical question for a QA position is how to test an elevator, and do not confuse it with the elevator test.
这就是 Joel Spolsky 所说的“粗略问题”。
“一个好的粗略问题可以让你与候选人进行对话,从而帮助你对他们是否聪明形成看法”
更好的策略可能是尝试找出一个甚至模糊合理的答案。
This is what Joel Spolsky refers to as a "back of the envelope question".
"A good back-of-the-envelope question allows you to have a conversation with the candidate that helps you form an opinion about whether they are smart"
A better strategy would probably have been to try and figure out an even vaguely reasonable answer.
这是一个费米问题,旨在检查估计技能。
This is a fermi question, intended to check the estimation skills.
